Investigations into Novel Multi-Band Antenna Designs

We investigate the possibility of using fractal geometry to construct radiating elements for phased array radar. We seek to understand whether the characteristics of individual fractal designs can give rise to multi-band or broadband performance and we do this by looking at Hilbert curves, log-perio...

Zusammenfassung:We investigate the possibility of using fractal geometry to construct radiating elements for phased array radar. We seek to understand whether the characteristics of individual fractal designs can give rise to multi-band or broadband performance and we do this by looking at Hilbert curves, log-periodic and circular-log-periodic radiating elements. We present the theory and discuss software that has been developed in order to model fractal elements and we present our findings accordingly. The original document contains color images.
